You're in the right list.


 I am trying to use a select statement to retreive multiple records
 without a reference table.

 Obviously retreiving a single record is simple enough:

 mysql SELECT 'value1' AS var1, 'value2' AS var2;

 +++
 | var1   | var2   |
 +++
 | value1 | value2 |
 +++

 What I need to do is something similar, but producing multiple records
 without referencing any tables:

 +++
 | var1   | var2   |
 +++
 | value1 | value2 |
 | value3 | value4 |
 | value5 | value6 |
 +++

You can use UNION for this.
